President’s Message
What a privilege and honor it is to serve as President for the BEST Chapter in the nation, the Florida Gulf Coast. My name is Matt Terry, and I look forward to serving you, the members. I hope each one of you had a great 2024 and are looking forward to this upcoming year.
We have seen turmoil and uncertainty in our organization over the past few years. However, our Chapter has remained resilient and strong. This coming year will be no exception. My hope is to continue the longstanding success of the Florida Gulf Chapter that has been established by our past Presidents, leaders, volunteers, and partners.
One of my main focuses of this year will be growth. Even though our first meeting will be virtual, we have numerous other exciting meetings where we should reach out to non-AI members to join us for fellowship, learning, and networking. Many appraisers do not know about us, what we do, and what we believe in. Membership is pivotal and we need to grow for continued success.
Finally, I would like to express my thankfulness to Mike Twitty, MAI who served as our 2024 President. Mike served our Chapter with great leadership and honor. Thanks, Mike, for all you have done and continue to do for our members.
If anyone has any comments or suggestions, please let me know how I can serve you better!
